Parliament To Engage CLOGSAG to Call Off Strike

Parliament has taken steps to resolve the deadlock over the neutrality allowance negotiations between government and civil service workers.

According to a letter sighted circulating, the Local Government Committee of Parliament will meet the leadership of the Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) to convince them to call off their industrial action.

CLOGSAG laid down its tools on Thursday, April 21, 2022, following the inability of government to pay the allowance as agreed in January this year.

They argue that the neutrality allowance ensures that civil and local government workers do not engage in partisanship while conducting their affairs when they are in their various offices.

The three-week industrial action has left many citizens seeking government services stranded.
